Today's travel photo is of the old bridge that crosses the river in Kampot, Cambodia. I found this bridge really interesting as it looks like three or four different bridges all connected together. I'm guessing that when one part has been destroyed by flooding it has been replaced by a completely different style and just [...]
Today's travel photo is of the spectacular cliffs of the Great Australian Bight, located on the Nullarbor Plain of South Australia. I took this photo during my recent road trip back across Australia from Perth to Brisbane. The scenery in this vast part of the country is just spectacular, and it is strange to see [...]
Chiang Mai is the first place I've ever stayed in a foreign country for longer than a couple of weeks. During my two months in this city in Northern Thailand I realised the benefits of an extended stay in one place. Once I had seen all of the popular tourist attractions, temples and markets, I [...]
Today's travel photo is of my shadow on the snow at the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania. At this point, I actually wasn't quite at the summit just yet, but I was almost there at over 5800 metres above sea level. Each step was difficult. The air is so thin that I had to stop [...]
Today's travel photo is of the busy central market in Kratie, Cambodia. Like most towns in Cambodia, Kratie's central market is the liveliest place in town. It's the place to go to buy everything that you need, from fresh produce and meat to clothes and household items. We stayed directly across from the market in [...]
Today's travel photo is of Masjid Jamek at dusk in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Masjid Jamek is one of the oldest mosques in Kuala Lumpur, built in 1909. It sits in the historic area of the city at the confluence of the Gombak and Klang rivers. I took this photo while walking from my guest house [...]
Today's travel photo is a panorama of the beautiful mountain views in Falls Creek, Australia. I took this photo from the alpine village of Falls Creek, which is one of Australia's busiest ski resorts in the winter. In the summer, when I visited, it is a very quiet and peaceful place, and there is still [...]
We must have looked like the oddest people in town. At least, that was the look that we were getting from locals who drove past us in their cars or on motorbikes as we wandered along the winding road. If it wasn’t odd looks that we were getting, it was looks of amusement at seeing [...]
Today's travel photo is a panorama shot of the entrance to Angkor Wat in Angkor, Cambodia. Angkor Wat is surrounded by a huge man made moat, and this stone bridge gives you access to the temple. From here, the huge towers of Angkor Wat seem tiny, but when you finally reach them they are just [...]
Today's travel photo is of the interior of Phuc Kien Assembly Hall in the Old Town of Hoi An, Vietnam. Phuc Kien is a traditional Chinese assembly hall that was established in the late 17th century. It was a place where members of the local Fujian Chinese ethnic group would come for gatherings and meetings, [...]
